I think it is compulsory for some sort of incident on easyjet. I really do feel there is much more anger in the UK surfacing at the moment.

I'm obviously an attraction for these types. I went out for dinner tonight, and there was another even worse group of Brits sitting near me. I ended up having to be moved when it looked like it wasn't going to end nicely between the 20 or so "lads" and the security that had been called.
I've been to this place loads of times and it's always been great. Indeed, it's back to normal now when the "lads" moved on.

I was on EK18 on the same day and when I checked EF there were P class available on each flight that day, I cannot remember which but one was showing P7.... I wonder if there is a correlation between P availability and rowdiness at the bar..!

Ever since the 2008 downturn, Dubai has switched it's focus and has been actively marketing itself as chav friendly destination. It fills the rooms in the ever growing hotels, keeps the ladies of the night busy, and the trendy massage parlours going as well.

Didn't you say on another thread you don't visit Dubai? So, how do you know this?

I said I avoid it and I do avoid it whenever possible. But at times work & family commitments do take me there. It wasn't always like that - but has been for the past 10 years if not longer.
